We’re here to help you get the packaging you need
As the largest distributor of protective packaging materials in the UK and Ireland, we can supply an extensive range of reliable packing tape.
Gummed paper tape is a type of packaging tape that uses a water-activated adhesive to bond to surfaces, typically made from kraft paper.
This is why gummed paper tape is often called water-activated tape too.
The adhesive is activated by applying water to the tape, which allows it to bond strongly to cardboard and paper surfaces.
It offers strong adhesion, tamper evidence and is fully recyclable, making it a secure and environmentally friendly packaging option.
Plus, as gummed paper tape is so strong, you can often use less gummed paper tape compared to traditional packing tape. This can help reduce your overall packing material use!
Apply water to the adhesive side of the tape using a tape dispenser with a water applicator, then press it firmly onto the surface.
At Macfarlane Packaging, we can provide a wide range of tape dispensers that work with gummed paper tape. Our range includes affordable manual dispensers with a simple water well through to electronic gummed paper tape dispensers that pre-moisten and dispense set lengths of tape at the touch of a button!
